Quote from Audioquest white paper on cable theory: "Material Quality also dramatically affects the performance of cables and their terminations. By material quality we mean both the intrinsic quality of the metal, such as gold, nickel, brass, aluminum, copper or silver, and we mean the way the metal has been refined and processed. Pure silver is the very best performing material for audio, video or digital. However, if silver is not carefully processed, even low grade copper will sound better. Silver has also earned a confused reputation because sometimes the term

Are you calling me stupid?

Curious if anyone had already recabled their HD800? As a rule, I had always heard that silver plated copper wire was to be avoided for analog signals. Tends to sound bright and irritating.

got my big order in on Friday via FedEx. The first smaller order came thru the mail. Just FWIW... I got a DVD in the order as my freebie, Stan Clarke's Night School, 2002 benefit perfromance with lots of guests and what not. PQ sucks but sound is good and definetly worth the $0 I paid. The last track of the show, SCHOOL DAYS featuring about 6 other bass players including the late Wayman Tisadale is just incredible. Worth checking out as Borders and Best Buy are selling DVD's as cheap as $4 a pop these days.

The thanks was sincere and I am no longer a newbie. I am a "limited edition bronze participant" thank you (and old enough to be most of you guys dad).

Thanks for the heads up newbie.

Season 2, Episode 2...now it's getting interesting. Glad I have not read the books. Pure genius on someones part, buying the rights to the books and producing this series. I had never heard of the books before the show started. Based on the number of titles, this could be a long running series.

Can't afford the Alpha Dac right now and not sure I need it's horsepower (yet) but I want the Luxman P-1 jones bad. I just emailed AQII to see if they really have it in stock.

Season 2 Episode 1 was quite a shock to me because somehow I had missed the last episode of Season 1. Had to watch it on line from some crappy website that has little pop ups at the bottom of the screen advertising crap. No way my cheap ass was going to pony up for the BD box of Season 1. Cool shows to get me thru the hot summer: True Blood, Nurse Jackie, Weeds and hopefully Californication but I think it's stalled till fall.

Not to be a buzz kill but I would be interested in hearing about any Telarc SACD discs that pop or click between tracks. My copy of Garden of Cosmic Speculation that I just received does this. I remember hearing about this phenomenon sometime in the past history of SACD discs and SACD players. Can't really remember the details. I played a Chesky SACD right after this and it doesn't click. Just a minor annoyance but an annoyance none the less.

If we are going there... Then we need to go here:

I have no luv for either team but that just ain't the way it went down. According to my eyes and the AP, "Crosby was ushered to several live TV interviews by NHL personnel..." before joining the handshake line. The NHL is so shakey about the league's future and PR that they put the media above tradition or anything else. Yeah Crosby is a whiney bitch but that is a whole nuther issue.

You will not get an email receipt from Concord. I got my first shipment of discs today. Cheers!
